Arni OS: Once every year, Part 2,3 Pg 2-Completed

My First OS on ARNI, hope everyone will like it'

Since Roshni's death, he had stopped going to their home, and had decided to stay in a lodge. But once every year, he forced himself to go back to that house to check if the house was in good state. He had joined the ETF since a few months now, and despite having worked with everyone, he had managed to keep himself away from everyone there. Even his best friend from his past, Rathore hadn't managed to break down the wall around him.

It had been a tiring day, the team returned after solving a crime of a young woman. She had been killed by her ex-boyfriend in a fit of anger. Everyone was working on completing their report, when suddenly they heard Arjun talking with Rathore, "Rathore, tomorrow I wont be coming to work, here's my leave request!" and Arjun went away without anyone being able to ask him anything. Shree and Chotu were gaping at him, they didn't believe that their tough cop had actually asked for a day off.

The next day

He gathered all his courage to go into that house. He knew the memories would hurt him, everything in that house was like a thorn which somehow was stuck in his heart and couldn't be removed. But he had to do it, he owed it to Roshni. She had decorated that house with all her love, she used to call it her "Love nest". He took his SUV and drove towards his home. He parked his SUV on the road, and opened the gate. Every step he took towards that house was draining him of all his resolve and energy to be strong. By the time he unlocked the door and went in, he was shivering and his eyes were filled with tears.

He first went in the living room, where all furnitures were covered with white sheets. Despite not wanting, he couldn't prevent himself from in his past.

"Yeh kitna ghatiya colour hein? Muhje yeh sofa pasand nahin hein!" Arjun said eyeing the sofa set which Roshni had just bought.

"Dekho don't complain! One you are never free to go to shop for the house, secondly even if you are free, you run away saying you have important things' and now that I have bought something of my choice, you are complaining!" Roshni said with tears in her eyes.

Arjun felt guilty seeing tears, so he calmed himself down and said, "Waise itna boora bhi nahin! Lekin why chose a red colored sofa?" and went to take her in his arms to pacify her.

Roshni relaxed in his arms, and hid her smile in his chest, she knew tears always worked with Arjun.

"But the only other color left was black, and you know I hate black! I want our lives and home to be filled only with love, joy and hope," Roshni said.

"Fine baba, tum jeeti aur main hara!" Arjun said, "and now since I let you won, mera gift kahan par hein!"

"Badmash!" Roshni said and ran away from him.

It was as if he was drawn back to his past, and so he couldn't stopped himself from calling "Roshni, Roshni'" only then he realized he had only been dreaming. He wiped the tears falling from his eyes.
